Application and Data Workflow Orchestration: An Introduction

What is application and data workflow orchestration?

The definition of data is obvious. But if you look up the definition of a workflow, you’ll probably find a complicated, generic explanation and overlapping terms like DAG, job streams. The same applies to orchestration. That’s because of the number of wildly different industries in which these terms are used. When it comes to IT, both workflow and orchestration (individually and as a phrase) are used in disciplines such as cloud/infrastructure management, service management, and application management.

In this e-book, we’ll focus on the use of application and data workflow orchestration to run stateful business applications in production. We’ll explore:

• Application and data workflow orchestration in the real world
• How it’s unique and differs from other disciplines
• Best practices for implementing application and data workflow orchestration
